Hornedo was purposely very squishy about AIPAC, and unless that gets fixed for real, Iʻd much rather bring back Carson. Hornedoʻs non-answers on that felt like an admission that AIPAC is already supporting him. (Thanks for trying to pin him down, Scott!) I agree with your pros and cons on primarying Dems, and I want more people to get involved, but AIPAC already has too much power in this country.
Iʻm also not convinced that Carson is as out-of-touch as Hornedo says. Iʻm curious if others were more convinced than I was, and why, if anyone wants to share. (Iʻm not in Carsonʻs district, so maybe Iʻm missing out on the negative things. But in my area with only MAGA reps, I know heʻd be a huge improvement for me.)
Yeah, that's definitely not where you'd want to see primary backing coming from. We need to get money out of politics - all of it.
And I'm sure Carson is doing work behind the scenes, but this moment demands more. He's gotta be in a tough spot - speak up too much and they'll accuse him of being Louis Farrakhan.
